Beginner Snorkel Safaris with the Ocean Conservation Trust
Take your first step (or splash!) into snorkelling! Our beginner snorkelling sessions take place at Mount Batten Beach. We’ll build up your confidence in the water by trying your hand at snorkelling around the shallow rockpools of Mount Batten. Here, you can get comfortable using the equipment whilst getting to grips with the sensation, temperature (and taste!) of snorkelling in seawater.
Once everyone is feeling assured and satisfied with their snorkel skills, we’ll head further out into the sea. Mount Batten has some beautiful seagrass meadows and kelp forests, home to spider crabs, pollack, sticklebacks and even sea bass!
Age 8+ (ages 8-11 need to be accompanied by a paying adult in the water on a two to one ratio). Adults new to snorkelling are welcome to join.
Ages 12-16 need to have an adult present at the sessions but not in the water.
Location: Mount Batten Bay, PL9 9SJ
